I'm hoping to understand the status of this a bit better. I am still
having issues with my Ubuntu desktop.  This seems to have occurred after
an upgrade and I've been struggling to find a solution.  I am running
Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS and my system is up-to-date.

Here is what my resolv.conf originally looked like.  When it looked like this, 
I was unable to connect to most web sites.
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
nameserver 127.0.0.1
search phub.net.cable.rogers.com

I do not believe bind9 is installed as /etc/default/bind9 does not
exist.

One of the workarounds on this thread suggested deleting /etc/resolv.conf and 
replacing it with /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original.  After copying 
/etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/original to /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/resolv.conf 
now looks like:
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
domain phub.net.cable.rogers.com
search phub.net.cable.rogers.com
nameserver 192.168.0.1

After applying the above workaround, the problem persists.  Any ideas on
how to resolve this?

It might also be worth mentioning that when I connect to my work VPN, I
am able to resolve all websites without issue, though /etc/resolv.conf
doesn't look any different.

I am not having any issues on any the other devices on my network, both
wired and wireless (Xbox, Android phones, Ubuntu laptop running 11.04
and a MacBook)

Also, could I get some clarification on whether this problem is specific
to upgrades only?  i.e.  If I were to re-install Ubuntu, should I still
expect to see this problem?

I would appreciate any help and look forward to hearing back on this.
